How to Make South Beach Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
- Chop 4 ounces of dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao) into small pieces.
- In a microwave-safe glass bowl, combine the chopped chocolate with 2 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream.
- Microwave on medium power for 30 seconds, stir well, then microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract.
- Let the chocolate mixture cool slightly (about 5 minutes) until it thickens slightly but is still pourable.
- Wash and thoroughly dry 1 pound of fresh strawberries.
- Dip each strawberry into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Tap gently against the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate.
- Place the dipped strawberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely set. For faster setting, freeze for 10-15 minutes.
